DID NOT FINISH: 1%

Just didn't capture me. May return but not at the moment.

Se me ha hecho muy pesado, hasta el punto de que en varias ocasiones me he planteado abandonarlo. Al final no lo hice y no tengo claro que haya merecido la pena. Un planteamiento atractivo en principio seguido de un desarrollo muy plano y tremendamente repetitivo que tampoco conduce a nada. Personajes sin características mi personalidad. Hordas de jovenes mujeres que, como ovejas siguen a los dos antagonistas.
En fin, una pérdida de tiempo a la que lo único que le puedo agradecer es haber propiciado la ocasión de leer [b:Jane Eyre|10210|Jane Eyre|Charlotte Brontë|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1557343311l/10210._SY75_.jpg|2977639] que tras la mala experiencia con [b:Cumbres borrascosas|10520714|Cumbres borrascosas|Emily Brontë|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1302401280l/10520714._SY75_.jpg|1565818] no estaba dentro de mis perspectivas y me ha sorprendido gratamente.

5.0

Good writing means I didn’t stop reading when I realized that this book was legit about characters from Dracula and Jane Eyre. Good writing means not caring that my eyes inadvertently roll when I see yet another book about vampires but continue to root for this particular vampire in this book. I don’t know what genre you like to read but you’ll like this because: good writing.

2.0

Una cadena de malas decisiones con el plus de un sub-plot de romance hetero que no me creo para nada.
Por lo manos las otras dos chicas si tenían química e historia.

4.0

4.5! I only knocked it down because the magic confused me a bit. But it also didn’t? I don’t know. It also was a bit slow sometimes.

This book is a beautiful look into toxic relationships and how women are constantly silenced or overlooked by “charming” men. I loved it. I felt like I was holding a piece of my soul at some points. Highly recommend.
